Secret Reports

[Skyblade]

I find it more annoying when critical story elements are revealed outside of the video game itself. This is something that happens occasionally with the Ultimania series of guides.

The Ultimanias were originally meant to be clarification, to explain things that the developers had tried to portray, but didn't translate well into the game, or were too subtle/ambiguous for most players to grasp. Only recently have they been used as a substitute for the game story.

I like them. They add interesting backstory. I can't be bothered to actually spend all of that time acquiring them, but hey that's what GameFAQs is for, right?

I agree. If a secret report or something similar will take too long for me to legitimately acquire, I will go ahead and read about it on a message board or something like that.

Soo, you don't like story being revealed outside of the game, yet you go to the internet to get this extra info?

Just more proof that they are a very poor storytelling method.
